Best Wraith Item Build in Deadlock
Note:You can find this build in Deadlock by searching ‘Beebom Wraith Build‘ in the Public Builds section. You can either directly use our guide or copy it and edit it as per your need, from the game’s Browse Build section.
To maximize the true potential of Wraith, we have constructed a solid item build. Follow the guide from top to bottom to understand the build progression. We have segmented each item in the build category into early-game, mid-game, late-game, and flex slots. Also, make sure you follow the items from left to right and take notes of situational items from below:
As Wraith, you start with an ammo capacity of 55 which helps you balance last hits while pinching enemy heroes. We suggest getting aHeadshot Boosterearly on to add more accuracy and damage to your last hits. This item gives you an increased fire rate and bullet damage shield along with bonus damage on each headshot. To add insult to injury and increase ammo capacity, make sure to getBasic Magazine.
For survival in the lane, get aRestorative ShotandExtra Regen. Both of these items will help you with additional HP regeneration to deal with enemy damage. If these HP regen items are not enough due to annoying enemies, get theHealing Riteas a situational item.
TheExtra Chargeis an ideal early Spirit item that goes great with Wraith’s Card Trick ability. You gain an extra card with this item to secure last hits or deal massive killing blows on enemies. If you are playing as a ganker and often move away from the lane, you must grab theSprint Bootsfor quick and easy escapes.
By the time you reach around 7-10 minutes in the game, you must be done with your early game items as Wraith. Given she has great potential to farm souls fast, you can go directly to her core items. With Wraith’s low cooldown abilities, you can combine theQuicksilver Reloadand never run out of bullets. This item reloads your ammo when you use an ability and will make you reload your weapon less.
As soon as your reload and ammo problems are out of the way, buy theTesla BulletsandBullet Resist Shredderon priority. Tesla Bullets deals 30 shock damage to the enemy and additional chain lightning damage to nearby enemies. Once combined with the Bullet Resist Shredder’s-12% bullet damage resist reductionon each spirit damage, it can be deadly. Tesla Bullets will also increase your farming speed as you churn down lanes and theDeadlock junglewithin minutes.
With the three core items in your bag, make sure you have upgraded your Sprint Boots toEnduring Speed. If the enemies are interrupting your farming pace or they have lurkers, get bothEnchanter’s BarrierandCombat Barrier. These items will provide bullet and spirit shields along with additional damage when your shields are not broken.
Once you reach the late game phase with Wraith, you can upgrade your Basic Magazine to theTitanic Magazine, Headshot Booster toHeadhunter, or getRicochetin any order. Wraith players focusing on the objectives more will need all the ammo they can get and the Titamic Magazine is ideal for that. To increase the farming rate, Ricochet is perfect for clearing multiple minions in quick succession.
In case you are entangled in fights for the most of late game, get the Headhunter early and deal additional damage on every headshot while gaining HP back. You can boost this survivability further by getting theVitality itemLeech. Leech boosts your health regeneration based on the damage you inflict and gives additional health stats.
To combine the spirit damage from your abilities and Tesla Bullets, you must buy theMystic Slow. Dealing spirit damage on the enemies will slow them down. This will make it easier for you and your teammates to clean up the enemies. You must also upgrade Extra Charge toRapid Rechargein the late game to strengthen your Card Trick and annihilate enemies more frequently.
While all the items above should be sufficient, there are some items you can get to fill in yourFlex Slots in Deadlockand become stronger.Toxic BulletsandLucky Shotcan be your go-to flex items as Wraith. As you already have Ricochet, the additional damage from these two can stack up and clear up enemies in team fights faster if they stand close.
If you are not a fan of Toxic Bullets’ passive damage, you can get theCrippling Headshotto reduce the bullet and spirit resistance of enemies. This item will not work with Ricochet as you must hit headshots to apply the debuff.
If you are engaging in team fights, getting theSuperior Cooldownis a must. Combine this item with your Full Auto ability to have the fire rate boost and additional spirit damage. If you want to enhance yourSpirit Powerfurther, get the Spiritual Overflow. This will build additional spirit on every bullet you hit which will combine great with Tesla Bullets and Ricochet.
In case you are struggling against enemy stuns, getUnstoppableand make yourself immune to interruption abilities. You will have more freedom in fights. Furthermore, you can also getVampiric Burstand activate it when low on health. This item gives you a 100% bonus lifesteal which goes perfectly with your insane fire rate in the late game.
With the item build sorted out, you must know which Wraith’s abilities make her better if you know the upgrade order. Here is a detailed overview of all Wraith abilities and the Ability Point Order in which you must unlock them all:
Wraith is great in lane thanks to her base stats and damage. This is enhanced due to her amazing Card Trick ability. Card Trick deals massive damage and can be upgraded further with the level 1 upgrade. The first level upgrade on Card Trick adds an extra card which becomes three when you buy the Extra ChargeSpirit Item.Project Mind is the least priorityas only unlocking it lets you teleport to a decent distance which is more than enough.
Once you have unlocked all the abilities, make sure you getlevel 2 on both Card Trick and Telekinesis. With your both damaging abilities upgraded, get level 2 on Full Auto by the time you get the Quicksilver Reload, Tesla Bullets, and Bullet Resist Shredder combo. As the level 2 Full Auto also gives you additional Spirit damage on bullets, the combination with Bullet Resist Shredder will be deadly.
Max Card Trick firstas increases your clean-up and nuke potential. Due to your rapid attack speed and short cooldown times, you’ll always have your Card Trick ready. After that,maximize your ultimate abilityto chain up more enemies surrounding you. Level 3 Full Auto gives you a 35% bullet lifesteal which can change the course of the game.
So ensure you level it up as soon as both Card Trick and Telekinesis are maxed up. Only prioritize your Project Mind upgrade when the enemies are ahead and you have a less aggressive advantage.
